Fewer businesses are now planning to move to Windows Vista than seven months ago, according to a survey by patch management vendor PatchLink Corp., while more said they will either stick with the Windows they have, or turn to Linux or Mac OS X.

The IT systems supporting the upcoming 2008 Olympic Games in Beijing, China, will not be using Windows Vista, Microsoft’s latest operating system. Instead, the computing hardware will run on Windows XP, according to Xie Long, director of Olympic sponsorship for Lenovo’s Olympic Business Department.
